Sun Roof Fabric Issue

[Iggles]

Hey gang. My first post here. Just got my st 2 weeks ago. Certified used car. Anyways, the fabric is hanging.
I'm bringing it in next week. I'll update with any info on the repair. It is covered by warranty. I don't see a reason for moonroof to be removed

Hey Iggles,
Did they end up repairing your sunshade? Was it repaired under warranty and how long did it take them?

I found the clip that popped off. It seems like the clip pops off on one side making the fabric get stuck in the rail. This then binds pulling the other side still clipped out of the rail so it sags. Also, the roller mechanism doesn't roll it up for some reason could be because the front is binding putting tension on the roller. If I could figure out how to get the back to roll it up, I'd just get the roof tinted and would not need to deal with the sunshade.

Anyone ever tackle this themselves?

According to what I’ve heard. They recommend not tinting moon roof further than factory. Supposedly, the heat in the layered glass will cause it explode/crack.

I keep my sunroof closed all the time. Only open the inner shade half way if it is cloudy and I want more light. Knowing the flip up fabric screen wind deflector can tear off at high speed I figured the roller shade may not last very long either if driving around with the sunroof open.
